A recent study revealed that archaeological discoveries made in the city of David, modern-day Jerusalem, are linked to events described in the Bible. See what it's all about here.
Scientists have taken a step further in creating an entirely new type of clock based on small changes in the energy of an atomic nucleus: the 'nuclear' clock, which could displace atomic clocks.
Digging deeper below the Earth’s surface reveals clues into volcanic activity and could improve predictions on when an eruption may occur.
The planet Uranus was observed by the James Webb Space Telescope. Thanks to the properties of its infrared camera, the planet's disk, its rings and its moons were photographed, all shining not with reflected light but with their own light.
There is a perception (perhaps popularised by the PaleoDiet) that before agriculture, humans relied predominantly on meat, but an international team show plants were very important to some hunter-gatherers.
A new algorithm could speed up Earth System Models used to predict future climate change and extreme weather events.
A new study explains what happened to the water that once existed on Venus and what could happen to other planets in the galaxy.
An innovative polymath from the Islamic Golden Age revived optics and engineered a lasting influence on science and art across the ages.
